Wind breeze through the hair
Cool thoughts a warmth of feeling
Serenity soars
Petals drop to wilt
Like tears fall to dry in pain
Colors bound to gray
A smile of yawn
Chirps of bird a morning sound
Blithe to make the day
Drizzles feel the face
Tiny drops to soothe anew
A sigh of comfort
With song the heart hums
As love sways with melody
Throb in harmony
A walk through the sand
Deep steps with past of travails
Windblown memories
Whippoorwill at dusk
Darkness fails to shade the trail
To find life with pride

I was motivated by a friend to write some haiku which I have not done for some time. To recall, a haiku is an unrhymed Japanese verse or poem form of 3 lines containing 5, 7, 5 syllables. For a change it is fun cudgeling the mind with something new.
